Come learn about the basic Cascading Style Sheet(CSS) terminology and techniques for styling text, creating borders, changing text padding and margins, use of background images for styling, hover effects and accesskeys as we create a Dreamweaver template using CSS for control of styling. Issues of accessibility, compatibility with non-graphical technologies like cell phones and PDAs will be presented, along with compatibility issues with legacy technologies like Netscape 4.77.

This session will present CSS positioning techniques as an alternative to using tables for layout. The Dreamweaver Template developed in the previous week will be modified to use CSS for layout.
